Scala Potamia - George Mayo. Date of travel: Sep 2007We have just returned from our third holiday at Scala Potamia, we stayed at the Susie Studio apartments, they are excellent and clean, the owner is very helpful and will do anything to make your holiday enjoyable.
Unfortunately, Thassos is becoming over commercialised, there is a great deal of development on the island with much building going on and I am afraid the Greek people, although very charming and friendly are spoiling what was once a very charming place to holiday, I appreciate that they are in a catch 22 situation ie: they wish to exploit tourism, however, in doing so I am afraid that they are spoiling what was once a lovely island and as a result we have decided not to return.
